Hi everyone,

Offered for sale to CR members are a couple more frames and parts mostly from the 70s and 80s. Frames cost 75 GBP to be sent to the USA. I can take payment a number of ways - Paypal, cheque in GBP, cash sent registered post, Traveller\u2019s cheques in $ etc. Enquire for shipping costs. With the pound being low in value these are a real bargain... for US buyers. All have pictures you can check out on Photobucket.

MARASTONI ROAD FRAME for Campy Paris-Roubaix gear c1951 Seat Tube (ctc) : 51cm Top Tube (ctc): 54cm Wheel size: Sprints/700C Rear dropout width: 116mm Bottom bracket threads: Italian Seatpost size 26.8mm This is a rather beautiful and unusual frame which is equipped with Campy Paris-Roubaix dropouts - these are completely original and undamaged - the version of the P-R dropout with the hanger is in the 1952 Campy catalogue. It also has original internal routing for the rear brake cable. Both the down tube and top tube have a dent but these are really not serious. Campag Paris-Roubaix gears are findable so this should be a great project. 145 GBP http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r77/hilarystone/Marastoni-P-R.jpg http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r77/hilarystone/Marastoni-P-R-dets-dets.jpg

STRATA TOURING BARS Strata was a small British company that was a rival to GB in the early post-war years. These bars have a relatively shallow drop (about 4.25in), shallow forward reach (about 3.5in) and are 7/8in in diameter. Clamp area is approx 24mm in diameter. I do not know what these bars were called but they are very attractive. 45 GBP http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r77/hilarystone/Strata-touring-bars.jpg
